Why are a lot of people defending those culprits

We have all seen the video of the DMK goon charging towards the car. What I don't seem to understand is how on earth are people even trying to justify their behaviour?

Let's say that the women, did infact, hit the car. How does this justify intimidation on the goons part? Running towards the car menacingly in the middle of the night and setting up a road block with their SUV is some mob shit. And people are supporting this act? Note down the car number and go to the cops. Mob lynching is never the answer for unless or until it's something of a life or death situation. And representing the political party in power, no less.

"You don't know the whole story". Yeah I don't care. As long as those women didn't murder or injure anyone in a hit and run, this act is not justified. Period. Even then, the only right way is to tail them, note down the car number and call the cops. It baffles me that this is something that needs to be taught. When you all start taking justice in your hands, this country will be much more fucked than it is. Your favourite cinema hero ain't doing justice to you. Enjoy them in the theatres and snap back to reality once you step outside.
